HomeMy WebLinkAboutFinal Plan approval conf_ SS Updated Project Plans - Permit No_ 126-21Hi Sam,
Thank you for the updated plans and explanation of the changes. I don’t have any concerns with the updated plans since the work remains below the originally permitted volume and the
adjustments to the footprint are minor in nature and in keeping with the originally authorized work.
However, as always, this determination only applies to the CAMA/D&F permit and doesn’t alleviate the need to obtain any approvals that may be needed from the USACE or DWR (copied here).
Please let me know if you have any questions and/or if there are any further proposed changes that arise in the course of time. I hope everyone stays safe and has a great weekend.
Best regards,
Heather

Heather/Josh,
Attached please find an updated set of drawings reflecting pre-construction conditions and the proposed construction template for Southern Shores. In accordance with Condition No. 14
of the subject permit, an updated survey showing beach conditions was conducted by TI Coastal between August 28 and August 30, 2022. The updated survey data have been incorporated
into the attached drawings and cross sections. As previously discussed, and noted on the drawings submitted with our CAMA application, “The Seaward toe of beach fill line as shown,
is not fixed and rather is subject to change based on the conditions of the nearshore bathymetry at the time of construction”. For the purpose of comparison, we have included on the
attached drawings the position of the seaward toe of beach fill as shown on the original plans dated November 1, 2021 (green dashed line). On average, the proposed seaward toe of fill
shown on the attached drawings is located landward of the seaward toe of fill shown on the original permit drawings. There are some areas between baseline stations 0+00 and -13+00
as well as -53+00 and SS-06 that indicate a seaward toe of fill slightly seaward of the seaward toe of fill shown on the permit drawings dated November 1, 2021.
Also shown on the updated plans attached is the location of the Mean High Water (MHW) line as observed on August 28 and August 30, 2022. This is in accordance with Condition No. 3 of
the permit. We will also provide this data in a GIS Shapefile. That will be provided in a follow up email.
Also shown on the updated plans attached is the location of the Static Vegetation Line as observed on July 28, 2022. This is in accordance with Condition No. 4 of the permit. We will
also provide this data in a GIS Shapefile. That will also be provided in a follow up email.
Please also note that the locations of the three (3) sublines proposed by Weeks Marine for Southern Shores are indicated on the attached drawings.
We are requesting you review these updated plans in terms of the updated berm and toe of fill dimensions and approve assuming you find the plans in compliance with the subject permit.
Please note that Weeks is preparing to commence beach fill operations in Southern Shores by mid to late next week contingent on weather conditions. If you would like to schedule another
meeting to discuss the updated plans, please let us know dates that would work for you. Also, please confirm receipt of this email.
Kind Regards,
